CommitteeIdentify strengths and weaknesses in the collection, documentation, use and application of roadside inspection and enforcement data.
Develop and promote solutions that improve the uniformity, reciprocity, accuracy and timeliness of roadside inspection and enforcement data.Develop suggested standardized processes for handling challenges to roadside inspection and enforcement data. Improve awareness and understanding of the need for uniform and consistent driver/vehicle inspections and inspection selection policies.
Examine
possible metrics for measuring data quality
